Detailed Description
Demographic characteristics, medical history, clinical conditions, and laboratory and cystoscopic data of patients who applied to our clinic between January 2018 and December 2021 and were diagnosed with IC/BPS were retrospectively analyzed. Adult male and female patients with IC/BPS who received 300 mg/day PPS at least six months ago with complaints of pain, urge, frequency, and nocturia not associated with urinary tract infection were included in the study. In addition, pre- and post-treatment symptoms, ICSI scores, quality of life (scored between 1-4), and satisfaction were compared.
